Hey everybody. I'm trying to upload a lot of videos that I thought I lost. Hope you enjoy. Be sure to Slap that like button.

I have been slinging regularly with the primitive Shepherd’s sling for almost a year now. I have been able to achieve hunting level accuracy with this weapon. So Today I want the share all that I have learned through this amazing journey.
Now I have made a number of slings from various materials and have a few tips on sling construction. Longer slings are more powerful than shorter slings. But shorter slings are much more accurate. My short sling is 27 inches in length.
The design of the sling pouch affects how the stone is released. The 3 strand cordage pouch has minimal contact area with the stone. This causes some stones to fall out prematurely during the cast. Conversely, the leather cup pouch has too much contact area making the release timing less consistent. For me, the split pouch design offered the optimal amount of contact area.
The release end of the sling, if it ends in a knot or point, will sometimes break the sound barrier thus causing a sharp crack. This cracking sound spooks game, attracts unwanted attention, and causes my release finger to flinch thus decreasing accuracy. So instead I made the release knot end in a puffball of fibers with uneven length. This will stay subsonic and thus silent.
Now onto the sling stones. Ammo consistency has a huge impact on accuracy. So First you want to collect smooth round pebbles from streams and creek beds. Then group them by size, the larger fist sized pebbles and the smaller quail-egg sized pebbles should discarded. Only the medium sized stones are kept for practice.
Now after a few practice sessions you’ll notice that some stones are consistently released too early, these stones are much less dense than average and should be discarded. You’ll also notice that other stones consistently release too late, these stones are much more dense than average and should be discarded. Finally you’ll notice that some stones consistently veer off in a curved trajectory, these stones have non-uniform internal densities and should be thrown away.
What you end up with is a collection of highly consistent stone ammunition.
There are a number of slinging techniques, my favorite is the Greek overhand followed by the underhand due to their relatively easier learning curve.
When practicing with the sling, a few important things should be kept in mind. First your muscles need to be relaxed, so do some stretching before practicing.
Your mind must be completely clear. Try to not think about anything when slinging. Distracting thoughts absolutely kills accuracy.
When aiming, keep both eyes open and look at the target try to focus on a small point on the target, if there isn’t one then imagine a point at the targets center of mass. Now you need to look into the target, your eyes must lock onto the point on that target. When the cast happens, every part of your body will be in motion, but that lock between your eyes and the target must never be broken or you’ll miss.
it is important to control your breathing, casting right after the exhale seems to work much better than the reverse.
When executing the cast, remember not to put everything you got into it, that will kill the accuracy. Instead reduce the casting power to around 70% and make the hit.
Now here is the hard part! You need to practice, ALOT, You need to practice every single day for hundreds of days. Practice until your arm and back is sore, practice until thick hard calluses form on your release fingers. Practice until your muscles, your eyes and your mind becomes one. Practice until you are able to consciously purge all thoughts from your mind at a moments notice.
After nearly a year and 30,000 Casts, i can now hit a small game sized target 3 out of 4 tries at 30 feet and 1 out of 2 tries at 45 feet. Thus I’m at the skill level of a child from an indigenous slinging culture. An adult with a decade of practice from such cultures are able to consistently hit torso sized targets at 150 feet according to European colonial accounts.
The primitive rock sling is indeed a powerful survival weapon in skilled hands, and I hope my experience can help those who want to master this weapon. And now that I have that skill it has become my favorite primitive projectile weapon. AnywaysThanks so much for watching, If you like this video and want to see more please like share and subscribe to my channel. See you laters.

In 1984 the first Slinger® side-discharge manure spreader was introduced. Improving on this design, in 1993 the ProTwin® Slinger® was born, giving farmers the ability to effectively spread the widest range of wet or dry materials compared to any spreader on the market. Now, we're excited to introduce the newly designed KuhnKnightSLC100 Series ProTwin® Slinger® Commercial manure spreaders with innovative features to take your productivity to the next level.

Slinger

The Slinger is a Midwesterndiner specialty typically consisting of two eggs, hash browns, and a hamburger patty (or any other meat) all covered in chili con carne (with or without beans) and generously topped with cheese (cheddar or American) and onions. The eggs can be any style. Hot sauce is usually served on the side. The Slinger is considered to be a St. Louis late-night culinary original. It is described as "a hometown culinary invention: a mishmash of meat, hash-fried potatoes, eggs, and chili, sided with your choice of ham, sausage, bacon, hamburger patties, or an entire T-bone steak.

Geography

According to the United States Census Bureau, the village has a total area of 5.31 square miles (13.75km2), of which, 5.29 square miles (13.70km2) of it is land and 0.02 square miles (0.05km2) is water.

Demographics

2010 census

As of the census of 2010, there were 5,068 people, 2,029 households, and 1,390 families residing in the village. The population density was 958.0 inhabitants per square mile (369.9/km2). There were 2,182 housing units at an average density of 412.5 per square mile (159.3/km2). The racial makeup of the village was 97.2% White, 0.5% African American, 0.2% Native American, 0.6% Asian, 0.3% from other races, and 1.1% from two or more races. Hispanic or Latino of any race were 2.3% of the population.

Design (UK band)

Design was a Britishvocal group of the early 1970s and its members were Barry Alexander, Gabrielle Field, Kathy Manuell, Jeff Matthews, John Mulcahy-Morgan and Geoff Ramseyer. Their musical style has been described as folk rock 'with intricate and appealing harmonies and an interesting psychedelic twist' and 'sunshine harmony pop with a light hippy vibe' and is now called sunshine pop. Design released 13 singles and 5 albums in the UK and appeared on more than 50 television shows before they split up in 1976.

Barry Alexander, Jeff Matthews and Geoff Ramseyer all played guitar in addition to singing, while Barry also played keyboards. Gabrielle Field occasionally played tenorrecorder.

History

Design was formed as a six-piece vocal group by singer and songwriter Tony Smith while he was working at the BBC in London in December 1968. The group signed a recording contract with Adrian Kerridge at Lansdowne Studios and recorded their first album Design during 1969. This led to a two-album deal with Epic Records in the USA.

Custard Factory

Located on the site of what was the Bird's Custard factory in the industrial district of Digbeth, it is now home to a thriving working community of creative & digital businesses, independent shops and cafes and bars. They include hundreds of small and medium-sized businesses and some larger ones like Asos. The project was set up by Bennie Gray in 1992 and substantially expanded by his son Lucan Gray, who owns and runs the project.

Development

The Custard Factory complex is set in fifteen acres (60,000m²) of factory buildings, originally constructed by Sir Alfred Frederick Bird (1849–1922), the son of Alfred Bird (1811–1878), the inventor of egg-free instant custard. The architectural firm commissioned to design the building was Hamblins. The architect may have been Augustus William Brenchley Macer-Wright who married Ellen Kate Hamblin, known as Jenny, who was the daughter of the man behind the Architect Firm's name. There is no positive evidence in Birmingham City Archive. At one time, a thousand people worked there.

Shepherd Sling: amazing accuracy with primitive rock ammunition!

I have been slinging regularly with the primitive Shepherd’s sling for almost a year now. I have been able to achieve hunting level accuracy with this weapon. So Today I want the share all that I have learned through this amazing journey.
Now I have made a number of slings from various materials and have a few tips on sling construction. Longer slings are more powerful than shorter slings. But shorter slings are much more accurate. My short sling is 27 inches in length.
The design of the sling pouch affects how the stone is released. The 3 strand cordage pouch has minimal contact area with the stone. This causes some stones to fall out prematurely during the cast. Conversely, the leather cup pouch has too much contact area making the release timing less consistent. For me, the split pouch design offered the optimal amount of contact area.
The release end of the sling, if it ends in a knot or point, will sometimes break the sound barrier thus causing a sharp crack. This cracking sound spooks game, attracts unwanted attention, and causes my release finger to flinch thus decreasing accuracy. So instead I made the release knot end in a puffball of fibers with uneven length. This will stay subsonic and thus silent.
Now onto the sling stones. Ammo consistency has a huge impact on accuracy. So First you want to collect smooth round pebbles from streams and creek beds. Then group them by size, the larger fist sized pebbles and the smaller quail-egg sized pebbles should discarded. Only the medium sized stones are kept for practice.
Now after a few practice sessions you’ll notice that some stones are consistently released too early, these stones are much less dense than average and should be discarded. You’ll also notice that other stones consistently release too late, these stones are much more dense than average and should be discarded. Finally you’ll notice that some stones consistently veer off in a curved trajectory, these stones have non-uniform internal densities and should be thrown away.
What you end up with is a collection of highly consistent stone ammunition.
There are a number of slinging techniques, my favorite is the Greek overhand followed by the underhand due to their relatively easier learning curve.
When practicing with the sling, a few important things should be kept in mind. First your muscles need to be relaxed, so do some stretching before practicing.
Your mind must be completely clear. Try to not think about anything when slinging. Distracting thoughts absolutely kills accuracy.
When aiming, keep both eyes open and look at the target try to focus on a small point on the target, if there isn’t one then imagine a point at the targets center of mass. Now you need to look into the target, your eyes must lock onto the point on that target. When the cast happens, every part of your body will be in motion, but that lock between your eyes and the target must never be broken or you’ll miss.
it is important to control your breathing, casting right after the exhale seems to work much better than the reverse.
When executing the cast, remember not to put everything you got into it, that will kill the accuracy. Instead reduce the casting power to around 70% and make the hit.
Now here is the hard part! You need to practice, ALOT, You need to practice every single day for hundreds of days. Practice until your arm and back is sore, practice until thick hard calluses form on your release fingers. Practice until your muscles, your eyes and your mind becomes one. Practice until you are able to consciously purge all thoughts from your mind at a moments notice.
After nearly a year and 30,000 Casts, i can now hit a small game sized target 3 out of 4 tries at 30 feet and 1 out of 2 tries at 45 feet. Thus I’m at the skill level of a child from an indigenous slinging culture. An adult with a decade of practice from such cultures are able to consistently hit torso sized targets at 150 feet according to European colonial accounts.
The primitive rock sling is indeed a powerful survival weapon in skilled hands, and I hope my experience can help those who want to master this weapon. And now that I have that skill it has become my favorite primitive projectile weapon. AnywaysThanks so much for watching, If you like this video and want to see more please like share and subscribe to my channel. See you laters.

In 1984 the first Slinger® side-discharge manure spreader was introduced. Improving on this design, in 1993 the ProTwin® Slinger® was born, giving farmers the ability to effectively spread the widest range of wet or dry materials compared to any spreader on the market. Now, we're excited to introduce the newly designed KuhnKnightSLC100 Series ProTwin® Slinger® Commercial manure spreaders with innovative features to take your productivity to the next level.

Slinger

The Slinger is a Midwesterndiner specialty typically consisting of two eggs, hash browns, and a hamburger patty (or any other meat) all covered in chili con carne (with or without beans) and generously topped with cheese (cheddar or American) and onions. The eggs can be any style. Hot sauce is usually served on the side. The Slinger is considered to be a St. Louis late-night culinary original. It is described as "a hometown culinary invention: a mishmash of meat, hash-fried potatoes, eggs, and chili, sided with your choice of ham, sausage, bacon, hamburger patties, or an entire T-bone steak.
